Two Workmen Hurt In Texas Refinery Explosion
In Beaumont Texas an explosion at the Magnolia refinery touched off a gasoline fire that burned for hours. Two workers Roussell Eyream and James Rivet were critically burned as flames shot up to 100 feet and the plant halted gasoline production. C A Reeves night superintendent said a broken pipe or gauge fed the blaze and fumes drifted from welding activity. The blast caused no widespread damage but halted operations with no estimate of cost.
